Aleph Zadik Aleph Order of Young Men
At the last meeting of the order Sunday, November 15, the principal topic for discussion was the Thanksgiving Frolic. The affair is to be given in the Y.M.H.A. auditorium Thanksgiving Eve., November 25. Harry Gidinsky, chairman of the dance committee, reports that the sale of rickets has been very encouraging to date and a large crowd is expected to be in attendance. The chairman of the dance committee asks all members have sold tickets to turn the money over to him immediately, so that a complete check-up can be made.
The order has received a communication from Philip Klutznick, Grand Aleph Godol, who is attending the University of Nebraska in which he states that he expects to make a tour of all the chapters of the order during the Christmas vacation. Zolley Lerner, another well known Kansas City Aleph, is also a student at the University of Nebraska.
In the early part of December, the ritual team of the Kansas City Chapter will make a trip to St. Joseph to install the A.Z.A. chapter there. The St. Joseph Chapter is planning a special program for this event.
The order is supporting the Sunday evening supper forums, sponsored by the Y.M.H.A. very enthusiastically. At the supper forum of November 15, the order attended in a body.
